The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different concentrations (2, 5, 8 and 11%) of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) diluted in Betsville Thawing Solution (BTS) on the quality of post-thaw semen Curimba. We analyzed the rate and period motility, sperm viability, membrane integrity and DNA, mitochondrial functionality, and fertilization and hatching rate. The plasma membrane and DNA integrity of a DMSO concentration of 11% obtained better results than the concentration of 5% (p <0.05).

  • Interindividual Size Heteromorphism of NOR and Chromosomal Location of 5S Rrna Genes in Iheringichthys Labrosus
    141 Vol.50, n. 1 : pp.141-146, January 2007 ISSN 1516-8913 Printed in Brazil BRAZILIAN ARCHIVES OF BIOLOGY AND TECHNOLOGY AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL Interindividual Size Heteromorphism of NOR and Chromosomal Location of 5S rRNA Genes in Iheringichthys labrosus Rafael Augusto de Carvalho and Ana Lúcia Dias * Universidade Estadual de Londrina; Departamento de Biologia Geral; CCB; [email protected]; C. P. 6001; 86051-970; Londrina - PR - Brasil ABSTRACT Twenty-five specimens of Iheringichthys labrosus from the Capivara Reservoir were analysed cytogenetically. AgNORs were detected in a pair of ST chromosomes, in the telomeric region of the long arm. Some individuals showed size heteromorphism of this region between homologous chromosomes. Treatment with CMA 3 displayed GC-rich regions corresponding to the AgNOR pair, plus other fluorescent staining. In situ hybridization by fluorescence (FISH) with the 18S rDNA probe showed only one pair of stained chromosomes, confirming the heteromorphism observed with AgNO 3 and CMA 3 in some individuals. The 5S rDNA probe revealed telomeric staining on the long arm of a pair of chromosomes of the ST-A group, probably different from the NOR pair. Key words : F ish chromosome, AgNOR, in situ hibridization, chromomycin A 3, heteromorphism INTRODUCTION used in chromosome preparations of fish to demonstrate the location of NORs, because Ribosomal cistrons are organized in multiple according to Salvadori et al . (1995), these regions copies that are repeated in tandem throughout the are associated with DNA families rich in GC cellular genome. Two different arrangements are bases. More recently, FISH with rDNA probes has known: one that contains 45S ribosomal DNA been utilized with precision to determine the exact (rDNA) which codes for 28S, 5.8S and 18S location and number of ribosomal cístrons.

First, analysis of stomach content was performed to verify the feeding habits of the fish in their natural habitat. The behavior was then verified in aquarium experiments by feeding 2700 larvae to each fish. The feeding preference of the fish was evaluated in further experiments in which larvae and commercial fish food were offered, either separately or simultaneously. For both methods, the evaluation was performed by counting the number of adult mosquitoes that emerged during a 60-h observation period. The laboratory was main- tained at relatively stable temperature and humidity. The stomach content of 9 specimens of O. kneri captured in the Cuiabá River contained 26.5% insect larvae, with 11.5% exclusively from Diptera insects. The emergence of adults from insect larvae was not influenced by the presence of O.

  • Jau Catfish Amazon Species Watch
    The ultimate in ‘hosted’ angling adventures throughout the Amazon UK Agent and Promotional Management for Amazon-Angler.com Contact: Facebook @amazon-connect.co.uk, Web: www.amazon-connect.co.uk & [email protected] Amazon Species Watch Jau Catfish Scientific Classification Another beauty of the Amazon - THE JAU or Gilded Catfish Kingdom: Animalia The Jau (Zungaro zungaro) is one of the three big Catfish species (Piraiba the largest), within the Phylum: Chordata Amazon and Orinoco basins and can be caught throughout Brazil, Peru, Bolivia, Colombia, Class: Actinopterygii Ecuador, Guyana and Venezuela. Whilst the current record sits at c.109lb (Brazil) weights of Order: Siluriformes c.200lb are highly likely. The Jau is solid muscle, and is at home in slow moving waters, deep Family: Pimelodidae holes as well as in fast currents. Easily identifiable through its dark and often ‘marbled’ skin, Genus: Zungaro these catfish have strength and stamina on their side, and will always use current and/or Species: Z. zungaro structure to their advantage. Once hooked, they are fierce fighters with a penchant for changing direction when least expected, often catching the angler off guard. One thing’s for certain though, give them get the edge and they will run rings around you. As with the other big Catfish of the region, strong primary and terminal tackle is essential. Catching Jau Use of either ‘live’ or ‘dead’ bait’ are effective and proven techniques. For both, don’t be put off by the size of bait you will use, large Jau have huge mouths and can easily swallow in whole fish or chunks of ‘cut-bait’ at 5lb+, but you will need to get the bait down as quickly as possible and then hold it there.

Three hitherto unknown oxyuroid nematode species of the family Pharyngodonidae are described from the intestine of South American freshwater fishes, two of them being established as species new to science: Spinoxyuris annulata sp. n. from Myleus ternetzi (Norman) (Serrasalmidae) from French Guiana (Sinnamary River) and Ichthyouris ovifilamentosa sp. n. from Cichlasoma sp. (Cichlidae) from Amazonas (Negro River, São Gabriel da Cachoeira), Brazil. A third species, recovered from the same host as the latter (Cichlasoma sp.), was identified only as Ichthyouris sp. because of the absence of the male, although it probably also represents a new species. S. annulata differs from the only other congeneric species, S. oxydoras Petter, 1994, mainly in the absence of egg filaments, the location of an unpaired postanal papilla in the male, a distinctly longer spicule, and in an approximately double length of the body. Ichthyouris ovifilamentosa is closest to I. ro Inglis, 1962, differing from it principally in the structure of the cephalic end, the position of the excretory pore, and in the presence of filamented eggs. Ichthyouris sp. females differ from their congeners mainly in a characteristic structure of the cephalic end, the extent of lateral alae and the shape of their posterior ends, and in the character of egg filaments.

(2017): “Distribution: Amazon River basin: Brazil, Bolivia, Colombia and Peru.” 1 Status in the United States No records of Brachyplatystoma tigrinum in the wild in the United States were found. Chapman et al. (1994) list Brachyplatystoma tigrinum, under the name Merodontotus tigrinus, as imported to the United States in October 1992. Means of Introductions in the United States No records of Brachyplatystoma tigrinum in the wild in the United States were found. Remarks Brachyplatystoma tigrinum is the valid name for this species (Eschmeyer et al. 2017) but some databases have yet to incorporate this change and still use Merodontotus tigrinus as the valid name. Information searches were conducted using both names. 2 Biology and Ecology Taxonomic Hierarchy and Taxonomic Standing According to Eschmeyer et al. (2017), Brachyplatystoma tigrinum (Britski 1981) is the valid name for this species. It was originally described as Merodontotus tigrinus.

  • Phylogenetic Relationships of the South American Doradoidea (Ostariophysi: Siluriformes)
    Neotropical Ichthyology, 12(3): 451-564, 2014 Copyright © 2014 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia DOI: 10.1590/1982-0224-20120027 Phylogenetic relationships of the South American Doradoidea (Ostariophysi: Siluriformes) José L. O. Birindelli A phylogenetic analysis based on 311 morphological characters is presented for most species of the Doradidae, all genera of the Auchenipteridae, and representatives of 16 other catfish families. The hypothesis that was derived from the six most parsimonious trees support the monophyly of the South American Doradoidea (Doradidae plus Auchenipteridae), as well as the monophyly of the clade Doradoidea plus the African Mochokidae. In addition, the clade with Sisoroidea plus Aspredinidae was considered sister to Doradoidea plus Mochokidae. Within the Auchenipteridae, the results support the monophyly of the Centromochlinae and Auchenipterinae. The latter is composed of Tocantinsia, and four monophyletic units, two small with Asterophysus and Liosomadoras, and Pseudotatia and Pseudauchenipterus, respectively, and two large ones with the remaining genera. Within the Doradidae, parsimony analysis recovered Wertheimeria as sister to Kalyptodoras, composing a clade sister to all remaining doradids, which include Franciscodoras and two monophyletic groups: Astrodoradinae (plus Acanthodoras and Agamyxis) and Doradinae (new arrangement). Wertheimerinae, new subfamily, is described for Kalyptodoras and Wertheimeria. Doradinae is corroborated as monophyletic and composed of four groups, one including Centrochir and Platydoras, the other with the large-size species of doradids (except Oxydoras), another with Orinocodoras, Rhinodoras, and Rhynchodoras, and another with Oxydoras plus all the fimbriate-barbel doradids. Based on the results, the species of Opsodoras are included in Hemidoras; and Tenellus, new genus, is described to include Nemadoras trimaculatus, N.

  • Embryonic Development in Zungaro Jahu
    Zygote 25 (February), pp. 17–31. c Cambridge University Press 2016 doi:10.1017/S0967199416000277 First Published Online 22 November 2016 Embryonic development in Zungaro jahu Camila Marques2, Francine Faustino3, Bruno Bertolucci2, Maria do Carmo Faria Paes4, Regiane Cristina da Silva4 and Laura Satiko Okada Nakaghi1 Fundação Amaral Carvalho, Jaú, São Paulo, Brazil; Universidade Federal de São Carlos, São Carlos, São Paulo, Brazil; and UNESP’s Aquaculture Centre (CAUNESP), Universidade Estadual Paulista, Campus Jaboticabal, São Paulo, Brazil Date submitted: 26.06.2016. Date revised: 01.08.2016. Date accepted: 16.08.2016 Summary The aim of this study was to characterize the embryonic development of Zungaro jahu, a fresh water teleostei commonly known as ‘jaú’. Samples were collected at pre-determined times from oocyte release to larval hatching and analysed under light microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. At the first collection times, the oocytes and eggs were spherical and yellowish, with an evident micropyle. Embryo development took place at 29.4 ± 1.5°C and was divided into seven stages: zygote, cleavage, morula, blastula, gastrula, organogenesis, and hatching. The differentiation of the animal and vegetative poles occured during the zygote stage, at 10 min post-fertilization (mpf), leading to the development of the egg cell at 15 mpf. From 20 to 75 mpf, successive cleavages resulted in the formation of 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 and 64 blastomeres. The morula stage was observed between 90 and 105 mpf, and the blastula and gastrula stage at 120 and 180 mpf; respectively. The end of the gastrula stage was characterized by the presence of the yolk plug at 360 mpf.

  • Goliath Catfish Spawning in the Far Western Amazon Confirmed by the Distribution of Mature Adults, Drifting Larvae and Migrating Juveniles
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Goliath catfish spawning in the far western Amazon confirmed by the distribution of mature adults, Received: 28 June 2016 Accepted: 28 December 2016 drifting larvae and migrating Published: 06 February 2017 juveniles Ronaldo B. Barthem1, Michael Goulding2, Rosseval G. Leite3, Carlos Cañas2, Bruce Forsberg3, Eduardo Venticinque4, Paulo Petry5, Mauro L. de B. Ribeiro6, Junior Chuctaya7 & Armando Mercado2 We mapped the inferred long-distance migrations of four species of Amazonian goliath catfishes (Brachyplatystoma rousseauxii, B. platynemum, B. juruense and B. vaillantii) based on the presence of individuals with mature gonads and conducted statistical analysis of the expected long-distance downstream migrations of their larvae and juveniles. By linking the distribution of larval, juvenile and mature adult size classes across the Amazon, the results showed: (i) that the main spawning regions of these goliath catfish species are in the western Amazon; (ii) at least three species—B. rousseauxii, B. platynemum, and B. juruense—spawn partially or mainly as far upstream as the Andes; (iii) the main spawning area of B. rousseauxii is in or near the Andes; and (iv) the life history migration distances of B. rousseauxii are the longest strictly freshwater fish migrations in the world. These results provide an empirical baseline for tagging experiments, life histories extrapolated from otolith microchemistry interpretations and other methods to establish goliath catfish migratory routes, their seasonal timing and possible return (homing) to western headwater tributaries where they were born. The Amazon has two main groups of migratory fish species, and they belong to the orders Siluriformes (catfishes) and Characiformes (characins)1–3.
